One in four Indians will ditch air travel for greener options: Study

Only one in four Indians are willing to take a lower carbon footprint alternative to air travel, even at the cost of inconvenience and additional expense, according to a new World Economic Forum study.

About 37% Indians on the other hand would take the transport with a lower carbon footprint – railways, for example — if it is at par with air travel, both in convenience and price, showed the findings of the survey.

While 24% Indians said they were undecided, 17% refused to choose their mode of transportation, basis the carbon footprint.
